In re Citizens Corp.

In re Citizens Corp.

Ruling
Stay lifted to allow guarantors to prosecute breach of contract claims against bank.
Procedural posture

Movant guarantors filed a motion in the bankruptcy court, seeking relief from the stay that was imposed when a corporation ("debtor") declared chapter 11 bankruptcy so they could pursue counterclaims in state court against a bank that acted as lead bank for the debtor's prepetition lender group and third-party claims against the president of a financial data technology corporation. The chapter 11 trustee opposed the motion.
